Connected

We know that loneliness can have a profound effect on wellbeing, and increases the risk of premature death. That’s why we have an unwavering focus on bringing people together, as well as breaking down barriers – around disability, or between different generations, different social groups or different genders.

We fund projects that help people develop friendships and supportive connections that endure, focusing in particular on isolated individuals or groups and helping our participants find friendship, purpose and community through their involvement.
